After 317 years, the San José shipwreck is finally giving up its legendary treasure
San José was a Spanish warship that sank off Colombia in 1708 while carrying gold, silver and emeralds back to Europe. Colombia has now begun a state-run scientific recovery, lifting a cannon, coins and a porcelain cup from a site 600 meters deep that may still hold treasure worth tens of billions of dollars.
Wealth that slept on the seafloor for centuries is about to move from myth into someone’s balance sheet.
